  • 1 pound salmon filet
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/2pound spinachwashed and stemmed
  • 6tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4cup dijon mustard
  • 2tablespoons organic apple cider vinegar

Instructions
  1. Heat the oven to 350° F degrees. Rinse the salmon and place it on a baking pan or in a glass pyrex flesh side up. Rub the flesh with a thin coat of olive oil. Place the salmon in the heated oven and cook for 20 minutes. Remove promptly to avoid overcooking.
  2. While the salmon is cooking prepare the sauce. Blanch the spinach and parsley by placing them in a pot of boiling water for 30 seconds (be sure not to overcook; the spinach and parsley should retain their bright green color). Remove promptly from the hot water and strain the liquid out. In a blender or food processor, combine the spinach, parsley, olive oil, mustard, apple cider vinegar and tarragon and puree.
  3. Serve the salmon with the spinach mustard sauce ladled on top.
